By this point in the season usually there are projection tools for pairwise right? If we win out and then lose in the ECAC finals, what's the highest we can rank? I just want to officially put this to bed in my own mind.

Cornell is 4-2-2 (including one SOW and one SOL) in the Ivy League. Dartmouth is 6-2. Both have games remaining against Yale and Brown on the road. If I understand correctly how the Ivy League calculates points, to win the Ivy, Cornell will need to finish at least 3 points better than Dartmouth in their remaining two games against Yale/Brown. So, for example, if Cornell goes 2-0, they will tie Dartmouth for the title if Dartmouth goes 1-1.

Too bad Cornell completely botched the game in Hanover. They'd be in the driver's seat for the Ivy otherwise.

I just noticed that QPee is on the pairwise bubble.  If the league tournaments were held with these numbers the ECAC might have only one school in the NCAA tourney.

Yes, need to root against Quinnipiac.

Is there an app for that?  Most Apple users have iPee and iPoop but I've not seen evidence of the Q app.

Quote from: dbilmesIn the Beanpot final Monday night, won by BU over BC, 4-1, each team had 44 shots on goal. (Harvard beat Northeastern, 4-3, in consolation game).
Yegorov with another outstanding night. First period was mostly BC, second and third BU took the driver's seat and never looked back.

The only way I could see two teams getting in is if Q loses in the championship game to a team that isn't too low in the pairwise. Not out of the realm of possibility since this season's Q team is not as good as the ones of the past three seasons, so I could very well see them getting eliminated before then (likely in the conference semis).

Yale blows a 4-1 lead in the 3rd against Colgate. Now tied 4-4 with 30 seconds left. I guess we were unlikely to catch Gate but certainly doesn't help.

Colgate was 9 pts ahead with 6 games left and the tiebreaker over us. We weren't gonna catch them. We are 2 pts behind Dartmouth and 4 behind Union. Those are the teams we have a realistic shot at catching. Unfortunately Dartmouth has an easy remaining schedule, and if we beat Union on the road we would still to finish 1 or 2 pts better than them in the other four remaining games. (I assume 2 pts better because we've been so bad against the top teams in our league and I have to imagine that's one of the tiebreakers.)

The Union loss is the killer. Flip that result and we are now alone in 4th.

upprdeck

First of all they have to probably win out for most of it to matter.  Given thats 42 pts

play the what if game, its fun

Cornell 42

Dart loses on SR night to Yale thats 41
Colgate loses Clark.Union in Sr night and Ot tie to someone thats
Union loses to Dart/Cornell That 40
Clarkson loses to Quin/Harv/Cornell thats 39

win out and

5th probably happens
4th can easily happen
3rd might happen
2nd is a stretch

upprdeck

Yale only went to OT because mid 3rd they made a pass from behind the net to a wide open player with the goalie out of the play and from about 3 ft he whiffed it went to a colfate kid who went the length of the ice and scored. then colgate pulled the goalie at the end and scored again

upprdeck

picked up 3 on union
picked up 5 on colgate
picked up 3 on harvard
quin push
picked up 5 on dartmouth

win next week and you gain on clark or colgate and union or dart
